Sadowsky 24F 5 string

Sadowsky 24F 5 string fretless "spalted maple"

Benavente Vortex 5

Warwick Thumb B.O. 5

Inspired by the "Brad Johnson your house is burning" thread, I wanted to post a similar poll.

Imagine you have to choose only one bass among the ones above. Which one would it be?

I have already chosen. I think that if I should "save" one bass it would be the Sadowsky Vintage 5 because it is the one I use the most.

In fact I am seriously downsizing my arsenal and have decided to keep only three instruments. The Sadowsky Vintage 5 and Fretless, and the Warwick Thumb (for sentimental reasons). And I also have a JP ZIA 6 on order. 4 basses should be enough!

I would take the 635 - just because it is the only 6, and I sort of feel like 6s are my thing. so much for the "too many strings"-type answers (may i add that the viola da gamba, from which most bow instruments originate, among them the DB, had 6 strings and frets - so i am more "back to the roots" than those who stick with 4s )

Me too, i would like my gear list to have 3 dream basses - but unlike you, i still have vacant spaces
